In the blink of an eye, the time has arrived on the third day, and this day is also the time arranged by the City Lord's Mansion.
The reason why this day was chosen was mainly because it was the birthday of the leader of the Huolian Sect, and envoys from all parties who came to give congratulatory gifts would also start to enter the Huolian Sect one after another starting today.
In this way, the entire Huolian Sect's defense and personnel will be concentrated at the main hall and entrance.
In this case, if they enter the Fire Refining Sect from the side, the chance of being discovered will be greatly reduced.
At this moment, Li Zhe and others were all called to the main hall again, but the number of people today was obviously smaller. At a rough look, there were only a dozen or so people.
However, there was no displeasure on the face of the white-haired old man. For him, there were fewer people, and the chance of being discovered after entering would be smaller.
And those who dared to go also proved that at least they would not give up when they knew they were sneaking into the Fire Refining Sect.
Immediately, after the white-haired old man glanced at everyone, he said in a deep voice: "From now on, follow me and hide your aura the whole time. Anyone who dares to reveal his aura will be killed on the spot!"
As soon as these words came out, the entire hall became solemn. Everyone took a deep breath and nodded.
Seeing this, the old man took steps and walked towards the outside of the hall.
Immediately, everyone looked at each other and followed behind the old man. Until now, except for Li Zhe, no one knew what the mission was. It can be said that the old man had completely learned the news. It's locked.
After everyone left the city lord's mansion, the old man flashed his figure, slowed down slightly, allowing everyone to follow him, and then headed straight out of the city in a mighty manner.
The pedestrians on the street were naturally curious when they saw such a huge group of people, but when they saw the white-haired old man leading the group, they didn't dare to look any further.
The white-haired old man led Li Zhe and the others in the opposite direction to the Fire Refining Sect. In this way, they went directly out for more than a hundred miles.
At this moment, everyone had arrived among the mountains. After arriving here, the old man turned around without saying a word, made a big turn, and walked in the direction of the Fire Refining Sect.
Although everyone was curious, everyone knew that this was not the time to ask questions, so they followed the old man silently.
In order not to be discovered, the old man deliberately led everyone along some deep mountain paths that were almost unreachable.
Fortunately, those left behind are all with cultivation levels above the Golden Core realm. Although they are not fast, they can still fly in the air, but they will not be delayed by this mountain road.
Along the way, there was the aura of the white-haired old man shielding them. No one noticed their actions. In the blink of an eye, about an hour passed. Everyone stood on the top of a mountain, and they could vaguely see the distant place in front of them. Fire Refining Sect!
The moment they saw the Fire Refining Sect, some of them were thinking fast and their faces turned pale.
The destination of such a secretive action is the Fire Refining Sect. Needless to say, everyone knows that it will definitely offend the Fire Refining Sect!
But most of them didn't expect this at all, and just thought they were going to the Fire Sect to accept the mission.
The old man stood here with everyone, and everyone formed a circle, quietly looking at the old man standing in the center.
The old man looked around at the crowd, and then whispered softly: "As you can see, our goal here is to sneak into the sect's spiritual land of Huolian Sect and steal the treasure."
"Ah?! The sect's spiritual land?!"
"Then...isn't that the burial place where the bones of the elders and masters of the Huolian Sect are buried? What's the difference between this and digging up ancestral graves?!"
"This... you didn't say your mission was this before! If you complete this mission, I'm afraid you'll have to worry about the Fire Sect's revenge for the rest of your life!"
In an instant, the entire crowd went into panic. A few timid ones quietly took a few steps back, looking like they wanted to take the opportunity to leave.
The white-haired old man had obviously expected all this. He looked at everyone and said calmly: "I will not force you to wait for this matter. If anyone doesn't want to complete the task, just return directly."
As soon as he said this, the faces of those who were still hesitant to withdraw became even more hesitant.
At this time, a thin man took a deep breath, bowed his fists to the white-haired old man, and said in a deep voice: "I would like to return to the city lord's palace first, and I will be willing to obey any orders in the future!"
Seeing this, the white-haired old man nodded slightly, with a smile on his face, and said softly: "Is there anyone else who wants to quit?"
"Me...me too!"
"And I, when I go back this time, I will never shirk any tasks from now on!"
"Yes, I will never take the training resources of the City Lord's Mansion for nothing!"
With the thin man taking the lead, people started to stand up one after another.
Li Zhe stood in the crowd, looked at these people and shook his head slightly, murmuring in his heart: "Idiot."
But he didn't say anything, he just stood there expressionlessly, motionless.
Immediately, after taking a look at the people who wanted to withdraw, the white-haired old man nodded slightly and said: "Well, I understand, you can go back to the city lord's mansion first."
As soon as he said this, seeing that the white-haired old man really did not make things difficult for him and others, the faces of these people showed a touch of joy. After thanking him repeatedly, their bodies turned into a stream of light and came towards them. The road went quickly.
Just the moment they left, the smile on the white-haired old man's face froze and turned into an indescribable gloom.
He stretched out his wrist and held a golden flying knife in his palm.
Then, with a flick of his wrist, the flying knife flew to the dantian of one of them almost instantly with a low roar that broke through the air!
laugh!
With one slash, he accurately stood at the man's dantian. When the dantian was broken, even the golden elixir was shattered by this blow!
Immediately afterwards, the flying knife seemed to have a spirit. After beheading the man, the flying knife drew a perfect arc in the air and continued to fly towards the other person.
In just the blink of an eye, or even less than ten breaths, the eight people who left had turned into lifeless corpses and fell from the sky during this time!
Seeing this, the old man lightly snapped his fingers, and instantly, spiritual power surged in the air.
Even as the corpses of the eight people fell, their bodies were already ignited by blazing fire. In an instant, all eight people were turned into fly ash and dissipated in the air, leaving no bones behind. Down!
After doing all this, the old man raised his hand gently, and the flying knife turned into a stream of light and fell into his hand again.
After putting away the flying knife, he looked at the remaining seven people and said softly: "Now, does anyone still want to leave?"
As soon as these words came out, the whole world fell into a deathly silence. A few people who had just regretted not leaving were now shaking their heads like crazy.
Seeing this, the old man sneered and said calmly: "You took the cultivation resources of my city lord's palace, knew the purpose of our trip, and still want to leave? What a fool!"
In an instant, everyone lowered their heads, and no one dared to answer the question.
Immediately, after the old man adjusted his breathing on the spot for a few minutes, he waved his hand and led everyone to the foot of the mountain and walked towards the Fire Refining Sect.
Li Zhe walked at the end of the team and followed the team expressionlessly. In his mind, he was thinking about how he would sneak into the Molten Fire Palace and get the Molten Fire Pill after entering the Fire Sect. It’s still unclear where the Fire Palace is!
But no matter what, Li Zhe knew that the first thing he should do now was to get rid of the white-haired old man after entering the Fire Refining Sect without letting the white-haired old man notice.
Otherwise, he would either be killed by this old man, or he would be killed by the Huolian Sect's people because the battle alerted him.
"It's really tricky..."
Li Zhe let out a long sigh and followed the team silently.
Time passed slowly, and in the blink of an eye, more than half an hour passed. Under the leadership of the old man, everyone finally arrived in front of the volcano wall.
Seeing this, the old man raised his hand to signal everyone to stop, and then he said in a deep voice to everyone: "I don't know much about the sect spiritual land of Huolian Sect. Next, you guys You must act according to what I say, and if there is any abnormality, behead him on the spot!"
With the lessons learned from the previous eight people, the remaining people didn't dare to have any opinions at this moment. They all started to nod in a hurry.
"Doesn't he also know about the sect's spiritual land..."
Li Zhe narrowed his eyes slightly. At this moment, a plan quietly came to his mind.
At this moment, after seeing that everyone did not dare to have other thoughts, the old man took a deep breath, stood in front of the stone wall, and began to perform the kneading as before.
Immediately afterwards, the spiritual power on the entire stone wall gradually rose, and in the blink of an eye, a quarter of an hour later, the tunnel appeared directly in front of everyone.
"follow me!"
The white-haired old man took the lead and stepped into the tunnel.
Where is the strength? Everyone knows that even if he takes the opportunity to run away, he will definitely be killed in less than ten breaths.
Therefore, no one dared to leave now, and they all followed the old man silently.
"Brothers, remember, we have to look after each other inside."
At this moment, the Hu Han from before turned his head and said something to Li Zhe, and followed him in with steps.
Li Zhe walked at the end, just nodded silently and stepped in.
The moment Li Zhe entered, the tunnel entrance was quietly closed.
